is there a way to determine which frequency your phone is using - i heard att is switching to 850mz and was curious if they did so in my area.

It's not so much that at&t is switching to a new frequency but they're consolidating all their EDGE to the 1900(?) frequency.
 
If you put your phone into field test mode (by dialing *3001#12345#*) and play around in there, it should tell you what frequency your phone is using.

i looked around but didn't see anything - but thank you for the information
